Episode One: Homecoming

Osaka

Riku sighed heavily as she cleaned the metal katana sitting on her appartment's only table. She had just finished another assignment.Wiping the last blood stain from the steel, the nineteen year old stood and slid it into a black, glossy sheeth with a dragon at the top of it in white.

Beep...Beep...Beep...came the sound of the girl's fax machine. Another file of a demon. She was used to the routine by now. After all, she had only been living like this since she was sixteen, after her first demon encounter with the deadly Krad.

Walking over to the grey, plastic machine, she picked up the papers and flipped through them.

"Phantom Dark," Riku began reading aloud as she walked into the kitchen and started up her coffee machine and getting a mug from the cabinet. "Approximate age, 21. Height, 5'9". Hair color, black. Well that sure is interesting." Riku grumbled.

Throwing the papers onto the kitchen counter, she poured the steaming, hot beverage into the coffee mug. Grabbing the file as she left the tiny kitchen, the slayer re-entered her living room and plopped down on the old, worn down navy sofa. Sipping gingerly at the steaming beverage, Riku began to read again, glancing for a moment at the picture of a man half hidden in shadows.

"That picture sure shows me alot." She grunted as she flipped through to one of the pages that showed his more serious crimes, besides being a demon.

"Theft from the Organization's museums...four murder's in the last two months. Oh fun." Riku mumbled as she closed her eyes and sighed heavily. The only reason the Organization gave her this assignment was because she was the only one who could actually do it. She was the best. They knew it. She knew. Just about every demon knew it as well.

"Let's see then, where can I find you?" She murmured to aloud as she looked for the page that would tell her his last seen whereabouts. Finding it, she groaned. He happened to be residing in Tokyo. Her hometown.

"Damn it." She grumbled. "That means I'll have to stop and see Risa. She may be my sister, but she's a damn pain in the ass." Standing, she finished off her coffee in one quick gulp and went to gather the few things that she would need for her trip.

Riku didn't need much. She grabbed a large, black trench coat, her always ready to go suitcase that held several days worth of clothes, a few hundred dollars in different countries currency, and a another black suitcase that held her other weapons which included daggers, (I'm so annoyed because I just had the name in my head...they're the dagger type objects with the two other spikes sticking out as well. Looks a miniature 'trident' or it's shaped like a fork...enough babbling. If you know the name, PLEASE tell me...-hits head on table-).

With one last lookat her appartment, the red head sighed and left, locking the door behind her.


Tokyo

Riku stepped off of the train and looked around. It was around two in the morning, and the other passengers were struggling to stay awake. She however was fully active, having night as her primary hunting time.

With her black trench coat on, and her two suitcases in hand, the teenager made her way from the train station and out into the busy streets of Tokyo, which also seemed to be very active.

Riku's first stop was her old home that she kept just in case she had to come on short notice to Tokyo. Making her way to the subway station, she waited patiently for the subway car to arrive, and got on, ignoring the looks from the disgusting, dirty man looking at her from the other end of the car. He may think she was vulnerable, but underneath that trench coat lay hidden her katana, and four sharp daggers. She also had a gun hidden in one of her black knee high boots, but she prefered not to have to deal with that since they made so much unwanted noise which could draw attention.

The man got off at the next station, leaving Riku to relax slightly, but she still did not trust the current circumstances. She hated Tokyo with a passion. It was where she grew up. It was where her sister lived. It was where she was first recruited into the Organization and then sent to Hiroshima to train. It was where she met her first demon. It was where she first met Krad. It was where she had her first brush with death.

The thoughts of that awful night almost four years ago scared her. Krad was the only demon she feared and would ever fear. Without knowing, she had fallen asleep, and the memories of that night consumed her and took her back to re-live her past.


Flashback

Riku smiled over at her sister who was walking with her boyfriend, Daisuke. They made the cutest couple.

"Riku!" Risa suddenly exclaimed. "I forgot to get the vegetables when I went to the store yesterday. Would you pick them up on your way home after school? I have to work with Daisuke on our Chemistry project." Pleaded the younger Harada twin. Riku could do nothing more then smile and nod.

After school that day, Riku went as planned, to the local grocery store and got the vegetables. Tonight she would teach her little sister how to cook properly, although she did dread the thought of Risa in the kitchen.

As Riku began the mile walk home to their apartment, she began to get a growing suspicion that someon was watching and following her. Speeding up, she fumbled for the can of mace in her backpack. Her hands were shaking as she quickly turned down a dark side road that would be a short cut to her home, but she would never get there on time.

Standing in the shadows, a tall man with deep blonde hair stood smiling. His white teeth were what caught the older Harada's attention in the first place. With a deep chuckle, he stepped closer into the light and before she knew it, he had grabbed her.

Riku lost hold of her bag of vegetables and the can of mace and they went flying to the ground as he grabbed both of her hands in one of his large ones while pushing her up against the concrete wall. Holding her hands above her head with one of his, he placed his other bruisily over her mouth.

The blonde grinned as her eyes grew wide and she struggled to breathe, her nose having been sealed by his large hand. After what seemed like hours to Riku, but what was only moments of chuckling, she felt the strength leaver her, and her vision darkening.

The young teenager was already falling into unconsciousness when she felt the man's hands suddenly disappear. Her body fell limp at the sudden loss of his strength holding her up as her mind slipped further away, and her last vague feeling was of someone's hands catching her before she fell to the ground.


Screech... Riku was thrown awake as the subway car came to a sudden halt, the announcer's voice saying that this was her stop. Shaking slightly, the girl stood, grabbed her suitcases and exited quickly. She hated thinking about the night that truly started the beginning of the rest of her life.

The sixteen year old version of herself had woken in a hospital, after having been in a coma for three days from lack of oxygen and a concussion, probably from when the man had thrown her against the wall. She had then had brief visits from Risa and Daisuke and then the men from the Organization came and spoke with her.

They had asked her to join them after telling her who had attacked her in the alley, but they did not know who had saved her and how she had managed to live, seeing how anyone Krad had attacked, had always been found dead.

"That is the past." Riku reminded herself aloud. She would not dwell on the past, but on her latest mission. With a tired sigh, the girl pulled a key from her pocket as she walked up the steps and into the apartment building she had not lived in since a year before. Walking up the stairs and into a hallway, she placed the key in the lock on door number 246 and entered the dark room. Switching on the light, she nearly screamed when she saw a vase of roses sitting on the glass table in the living room.

Closing the door and pulled a dagger out, she dropped her suitcases and went to the glass vase, looking at the card that lay on the table. Picking up the white paper, she opened it and her heart nearly lept out of her chest.

In beautifully written cursive were the words:

Dear Riku,
I'm glad you have finally come back. I look forward to seeing you again. I'm sure we will see eachother soon.

What scared her even more were the words written under it, the sender's signature:

-The one who rescued you three years ago.

"Oh my god..." Riku said as her hands shook. Dropping it, she went to take a shower and clear her thoughts of her rescuer and focus more on her assignment.


So what did you think for the first chap? I can't believe how few Riku and Dark fics there are. It's so annoying... anyways, this only took me a few hours with my finger-- So don't get to overly excited that the DH mistress is back. She's still kinda on vaca.lol. Anyways, reviews are always appreciated. LOVE YA!

Scheming with 9 fingers,
-DHM-
